Prodrift Series Returns to Ennis.
In just over one week’s time, the Ennis Marts will once again come alive to the sound of top level motorsport as the Prodrift Series rolls back into town for what promises to be a high octane kick off to the 2011 series.
Prodrift are delighted to announce that there will be a Carnival on-site for the duration of the event. The incredible driving action combined with the Carnival, Club-night in the maginificent Queen’s Nightclub on the 16th, live MC and an on-site Dj, will all make for a unique and highly entertaining afternoons action for the whole family.
Also on display will be a gathering of Ireland’s sports and custom car clubs, trade stands, food vendors and merchandise areas, selling everything from the official Prodrift championship merchandise and souvenirs to the latest products for your very own modified motor. This event is one not to be missed.
We are also proud to announce that our official hotel partner for the season premier will be the Clare Inn Hotel, located just outside of Ennis town. The hotel are offering some fantastic deals to Prodrift drivers and patrons so book fast. Tel: 061-368161 061-368161 www.clareinnhotel.com
For 2011 improvements have been made to the competition area of the venue. Parking for the event is also free at the adjoining carpark.

Booked in, for event and hotel.

Just wanted to say i hope the drivers have learnt to interact with the camera from last year! Enough of the serious looks already or the "ah fuk is he pointing that camera at me ffs?" looks. The camera is your friend :)

whats the story with parking? is it supervised at all?
^^^^^^ not the 2 years before. Correct me if I am wrong. Parkin is an industrial estate across the road.
parking is in the ind estate with no security but there will be cops around all day,old ground is 2 mins walk from mart an same to queens,west county hotel is 2 mins drive from mart an is partner of clare inn they may give same deal as them plenty of b&bs on limerick rd ,clonroad,plus theres a hostel in town with very clean rooms honest at a good price,for those who cant afford the petrol the train station is across the road from the mart.greengables b&b is the closest to mart rose cottage next hope that helps c ye there
Looking foward to the event now hope the sun stays for the weekend.

A cock is right but going to be interesting
Some entry list!! There goes any hope or dream I had of making the battles this year if non-seeded has that kind of quality and numbers all year lol! Amateur is even stacked with loads and loads of top drivers! That has to be a huge increase over last year? Hope we manage to squeeze some decent practice in on saturday at least!
